Our Take

After nearly three decades, Kenny Davern and his trio are back with "The Last Reunion," a whimsical journey through the world of traditional jazz. The album opens with the toe-tapping "Swing That Music," a lively track that sets the stage for what's to come. Davern's clarinet skills are on full display, effortlessly gliding through intricate melodies with a playful finesse.

Throughout the album, Davern is joined by his trusty bandmates, Bob Rosengarden on drums and Dick Wellstood on piano, who provide a solid foundation for Davern's virtuosic solos. Tracks like "Stardust" and "Just a Closer Walk with Thee" showcase the trio's chemistry, with each musician bringing something unique to the table.

But it's not all light and breezy on "The Last Reunion." The trio delves into darker, more introspective territory on tracks like "Goodbye," where Davern's emotive playing tugs at the heartstrings. It's a reminder that even in the world of jazz, there's room for deep emotion and introspection.

Overall, "The Last Reunion" is a delightful romp through the world of traditional jazz, with Davern and his trio proving that they still have plenty of magic left in them. So grab a glass of your favourite tipple, sit back, and let the music take you on a journey you won't soon forget.
